With the advent of the Ipad and similar tablet devices, most of which are well out of reach of the average consumer , the Dreampad tablet pc comes in at an incredible price with the inherent value of the high end tablet devices such as the Ipad and the Samsung Galaxy Tab. This wifi enabled device is perfect for web browsing, ebook reading, playing 3D and online games, Facebook and Twitter, reading comic books, instant access to the latest news feed and newpapers, watching HD (720p) videos, youtube browsing and a host of other features and applications downloadable from the Android Market.
The 8 inch form factor is ideal for home use as well as use on the road . Take your Ebooks with you on the road and never miss the opportunity to read your favourite book. With full Adobe Flash 10.1 (Which the Ipad does not have), you are able to view web pages in all its glory including flash enabled content and web videos. With the embeded youtube browsers as well as other Youtube applications from the app market you are able to seemlessly view,comment and rate Youtube videos without visiting the Youtube site.
